Or at least to learn what economics is all about.

I spent 4 years at University studying it. One of the most boring things I have ever done and I still regret it.

...that'll be why you don't understand the significance of the German economy then?

What would you have rather done?

I always thought the drama students had a lot of time for sh4gging. But I bet they did not get decent jobs.

I bet they're happy though.

Not sure how you made that leap. Then again as an admin clerk..I mean PM it doesn't really surprise me. Go look for an argument elsewhere kiddo.

I think in almost every circumstance, apart from the perfect economic storm we are going through, an exporting country would be better off. But as the article shows, when demand stops EVERYWHERE, an exporting country (with low consumption) is fooked.
So I think they are not better off now.

(relatively) BOOMED?

I haven't figured that out yet. Career wise I regret not having a go at making it as a professional golfer.

Maybe "The war is over. Your fascination with Germans is unhealthy. Move on or get help!" had something to do with it?

And you know absolutely ZIP about what I do for a living, so try not to make even more of a fool of yourself then you already have eh?

And the "kiddo" bit also gave me a bit of a giggle. Thanks for that.
